This is a 371 of PCT/JP94/00697, filed Apr. 26, 1994.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This invention relates to a serine derivative which has an anti-PCP (phencyclidine) action.

BACKGROUND ART

It is known that PCP induces mental symptoms which closely resemble various symptoms of schizophrenia including negative symptoms Am. J. Psychiat., 135, 1081 (1987)!. On the other hand, administration of PCP into animals induces various types of abnormal behavior. Accordingly, a drug which specifically inhibits the PCP-induced abnormal behavior in animals (a drug having anti-PCP action) is considered to be useful as a therapeutic drug for schizophrenia in human.

Dopamine receptor blocking drugs have mainly been used as therapeutic drugs for schizophrenia. These dopamine blocking drugs, however, have problems in that not only their effect against negative symptoms is low but also they cause side effects such as extrapyramidal syndrome.

On the contrary, the specific anti-PCP drug is excellent in that it can improve negative symptoms of schizophrenia, which cannot be cured by the dopamine blocking drugs and that it does not cause side effects which exist in the dopamine blocking drugs.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

The inventors of the present invention have conducted intensive studies on the development of a compound having excellent and specific anti-PCP action and, as the result, accomplished the present invention by creating a nitrogen-containing cycloalkyl lower alkyl group-substituted thienyl, furyl or thiazolyl serine derivative, or salts thereof, whose chemical structure is completely different from those of the prior art compounds. Though an unsubstituted thienyl serine derivative (J. Chromatogr., 515, 475-82), a 5-pyridylthienyl serine derivative Anal. Sci., 7 (Suppl., Proc. Int. Congr. Anal. Sci., 1991, Pt. 1), 177-80! and 5-alkylthienyl or 5-phenylhexylthienyl serine derivative (EP-A-446798) are known in the art as thienyl serine derivatives, these reports do not disclose anti-PCP action of the derivatives.

The compound of the present invention can be produced by applying various synthesis methods. The following describes examples of typical production methods. Production method 1 ##STR41## (In the above formulae, X, Y, R⁵, A and B are as defined in the foregoing, R^(1') is one of the groups of R¹ except for a hydrogen atom and a lower alkyl group or a protecting group for the amino group and R^(2') represents a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, an acyl group or an aralkyl group. In this case, the aralkyl group is limited to an arylmethyl group such as benzyl group or the like. R^(1') and R^(2') may be combined together to form a four- to nine-membered nitrogen-containing cycloalkyl group. R⁷ is a lower alkoxycarbonyl group as a member of the groups of R³ or a protecting group for the carboxyl group.)

The compound (VII) of the present invention is produced by allowing an aldehyde compound represented by the general formula (IV) to react with a glycine compound represented by the general formula (V) and, if necessary, removing the lower alkoxy moiety of the group R⁷ lower alkoxycarbonyl group, the amino-protecting group represented by ##STR42## in the formula (V) and the carboxyl-protecting group.

This reaction is carried out by activating the compound (V) with a base such as lithium diisopropylamide, lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide or the like in an organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), ether, dioxane or the like and then allowing the thus activated compound to react with the compound (IV) in an amount corresponding to the reaction at a cooling temperature to room temperature, for example, at -80° C. to room temperature.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY

The compound of the present invention shows a specific anti-PCP action and is useful as a psychotropic drug, an antischizophrenic drug, an antidementic drug for Alzheimer disease and the like, a drug for improving problematic behavior such as delirium caused by dementia and a drug for treating juvenile mental retardation and autism.

Anti-PCP action of the compound of the present invention has been confirmed by the following test method.

Anti-PCP action test

Test method

A compound to be tested and PCP (3 mg/kg) were administered to each male Wistar rat (body weight, 200 to 300 g) (n=8) by subcutaneous injection, and the rat was put in a hole-board apparatus (HBA) 30 minutes thereafter. HBA is an open field of 40 cm in both width and length made of a bed having 16 holes of 4 cm in diameter with walls of 20 cm in height around it Psychopharmacology, 52, 271 (1977)!.

Locomotion (the number of times moved through 9 divided plots on the bed) and dipping (the number of times dipped the head into holes) of each rat in the HBA were measured for 5 minutes. Male rats of Wistar line (n=8) to which PCP (3 mg/kg) was administered by subcutaneous injection were used as a control group.

In this pharmacological test, the compound of the present invention antagonized the PCP-induced increase in locomotion and decrease in dipping with a statistical significance (p<0.01), thus showing its strong anti-PCP action.

Test results against increase in locomotion

Example 13-(3) 3 mg/kg.sc

Example 14 3 mg/kg.sc

Test results against decrease in dipping

Example 14 3 mg/kg.sc

In addition, the compound of the present invention did not inhibit spontaneous behavior (locomotion and dipping) of rats with a dose effective in showing anti-PCP action.

On the contrary, haloperidol, which is a typical dopamine receptor blocking agent broadly used as a neuroleptic drug, also antagonized the PCP-induced locomotion, but inhibited spontaneous behavior of rats with the same dose.

Using a fluidized granulation coating apparatus, 150 g of the compound of Example 13-(3) was uniformly mixed with 325 g of lactose and 80 g of corn starch. Then, 225 g of 10% hydroxypropylcellulose solution was sprayed to form granules. After drying, the granules were passed through a 20 mesh screen, mixed with 19 g of carboxymethylcellulose calcium and 8.5 g of magnesium stearate and then made into tablets each weighing 120 mg using a rotary tabletting machine equipped with a punch of 7 mm×8.4 R.
